Wait! Are those really MY boys?!




More and more often lately I have been noticing Casper, my cat, following around Brinkley, my dog. Every time Brinkley is let outside, Casper faithfully waits for him on the inside of the door to come back in. And he seems ever more curious about Brinkley's toys, food, etc. They have lived together since we brought Brinkley home two summers ago, and while Gracie, my female cat, still seems to loathe the dog for his very existence, I dare say Casper is giving in to his big bro and now strives to be his little buddy. Imagine my surprise when I got out of bed this morning and found them laying together on Brinkley's new bed on my way to the bathroom. I was thrilled to have my camera close enough at hand to snap these photos before Brinkley got up and stretched. I'm not sure how Brinkley feels about having to share his bed, but its pretty darn cute anyhow. Gotta love my boys!

A Winter Wonderland @ Midnight




Jeff and I were looking out the window of our bedroom last night admiring the way the snow was coating the world outside. I wanted to grab my camera and attempt to capture some of natures beauty...but I still haven't quite mastered those night settings and snow was still falling heavily causing me some anxiety about getting my camera wet. Nevertheless, I snapped these shots and then we walked Brinkley around the block and threw snowballs for him to catch in his mouth. It was a sweet spontaneous little moment that ended with cold noses, wet socks, and happy hearts.

My Little Bag of Grace

Gracie likes to keep me company in my craft room. If she's not meowing for me to make room for her to snuggle in my lap, she's getting into something she's not supposed to and meowing at me when I tell her to stop. I don't know how I raised such a stubborn little back-talker, but I love her to death. The other night she decided to knock over and curl up into a shopping bag and her face peeking out at me captured my heart and attention. I snapped a few photos of her, changed them to black and white and put a color spotlight on just her face to her eyes and little pink nose draw all the focus that they should. She's my baby girl, and she's my little "bag of Grace."
